真气不足,邪气滞留于肌肉之中,导致气血凝聚而形成疾患,称为流注。初起时漫肿无头,皮色不变,均宜使用葱熨法(见卷五)。若皮肉不热者,可用雷火针灸治。发于肌肉丰厚处者容易治愈;发于骨节及空软之处者,难以治疗。

以上方剂需对症择用,一般服用一至三四五服,视病情轻重而定。
前述病症若因脾气虚弱,湿气停滞于肌肉纹理之间,仅见肿胀而肌肉颜色不变,宜用六君子汤加川芎、当归、芍药、肉桂等。若因伤寒发汗后余邪未尽导致肿胀者,宜用人参败毒散、小柴胡汤之类。凡流注症轻者,服药即可消散;症重者必然溃破。将溃之时,宜服用托里透脓汤。若溃后久不收敛者,宜用人参养营汤之类,以补益气血为主。
骨疽,乃是流注的败坏重症。如果使用凉药,则会内伤脾胃,外冰血脉,导致肌肉不生,气血不旺而更加凝滞。应当健脾补肾,脾能生血,肾主骨,肾气充实则骨骼有生气,而疽便不会附着于骨了。
Insufficient Zhenqi (True Qi) allows pathogenic factors to remain in the muscles, causing Qi and Blood to congeal and form a disorder known as Liuzhu (Flowing Abscess). Initially, there is diffuse swelling without a head, and the skin color remains unchanged. All such cases should be treated with Congyi Method (Onion Moxibustion) (see Volume 5). If the skin and flesh are not hot, Leihuo Needle (Thunder-Fire Needle) moxibustion can be used. Cases occurring in areas with abundant muscle tissue are easy to cure; those occurring at bone joints or hollow/soft areas are difficult to treat.
Yiqi Yangying Decoction (Benefit Qi and Nourish Ying Decoction): Treats swelling in the limbs, neck, and other areas caused by emotional depression and damage to Qi and Blood. Regardless of whether the swelling is soft or hard, red or white, painful or painless, unformed abscesses will resolve spontaneously, and formed abscesses will rupture spontaneously.

Muxiang Liuqi Yin (Wood Fragrance Qi-Regulating Drink): Treats joint pain due to Liuzhu, or chest and diaphragm discomfort due to sudden anger, or conditions caused by damp-phlegm (also known as Fangmai Liuqi Yin).
Ingredients: Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Chuanxiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Baishao (Paeoniae Radix Alba) stir-fried, Fuling (Poria), Huangqi (Astragali Radix), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Zisu (Perillae Folium), Wuyao (Linderae Radix), Qingpi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium Viride), Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma Preparatum) processed, Jiegeng (Platycodonis Radix), Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), Zhishi (Aurantii Fructus Immaturus) stir-fried, Chenpi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) (each 1 qian), Muxiang (Aucklandiae Radix), Dafupi (Arecae Pericarpium), Binglang (Arecae Semen), Zhike (Aurantii Fructus) (each 5 fen), add Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) 3 slices and Dazao (Jujubae Fructus) 2 pieces, decoct in water and take orally.

Modifications: At the initial stage of Liuzhu, add Qianghuo (Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix) and Duhuo (Angelicae Pubescentis Radix); for pain, add Rushen (Boswelliae Resina) and Moyao (Commiphora Myrrha).

Da Fangfeng Tang (Great Saposhnikovia Decoction): Treats deficiency of the three Yin meridities of the foot, internal invasion of cold pathogens, resulting in Crane Knee Wind, Guyiju (Bone Abscess), Liuzhu with whole-body pain, or swelling without pain. Suitable regardless of whether ulcerated or not.
Ingredients: Renshen (Ginseng Radix), Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma), Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), Qianghuo (Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix), Shudi (Rehmanniae Radix Preparata), Duzhong (Eucommiae Cortex) (each 2 qian), Fuzi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Preparata) processed, Huangqi (Astragali Radix), Niuxi (Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix), Baishao (Paeoniae Radix) (each 1 qian), Chuanxiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma) (1.5 qian), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) roasted, Guigui (Cinnamomi Cortex) (each 5 fen). (Another version includes Danggui and Shengjiang, without Guigui.)
Select the above formulas according to the specific syndrome. Take one dose up to three, four, or five doses, depending on the severity of the disease.
If the aforementioned conditions are due to Spleen Qi deficiency with dampness stagnating in the muscle texture, presenting only as swelling with unchanged skin color, use Liujunzi Tang (Six Gentlemen Decoction) plus Chuanxiong, Danggui, Shaoyao, and Rougui. If swelling occurs after sweating from Shanghan (Cold Damage) due to residual pathogens, use Ren Shen Bai Du San (Ginseng Detoxifying Powder) or Xiao Chai Hu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) etc. Generally, mild Liuzhu cases resolve with medication; severe cases must ulcerate. When about to ulcerate, take Tuoli Toungong Tang. If ulcers fail to heal, use Renshen Yangying Tang (Ginseng Nourishing Ying Decoction) etc., focusing on tonifying Qi and Blood.
Guyiju (Bone Abscess) is a deteriorated severe stage of Liuzhu. Using cooling medicines would internally injure the Spleen and externally freeze the Blood, preventing muscle growth and weakening Qi and Blood, leading to further stagnation. One should strengthen the Spleen and tonify the Kidney. The Spleen generates Blood, and the Kidney governs Bone. When the Kidney is solid, the Bone has vital energy, and the abscess will not adhere to the bone.
